Lets hope this doesn't last and this is still a championship that will run until the last round.....it was way more fun seeing RV in 8th and apparently struggling almost knowing that he would improve as the year went on. 30 secs+ = boaaaaaaringggggg!

RV put on a clinic, he was awesome. Don't see it being the norm once we're away from these fly aways and back to the more traditional tracks. Time will tell Smile

Yeah, it's easy to see a dominant performance like that from him and assume that it will continue. I'm sure we'll see many changes at the front and it will be a great championship to follow, shit it was only a qualifying race, I've been spending way too much time on Vital.....

My profile pic changes weekly bro.

Agree, I think there will be rounds that RV is untouchable, this could be one of them, though we won't know for sure until just after this time tomorrow.

There will be other weekends where he will be challenged.

Though I don't think there will be more weekends like Qatar, but again who knows for sure. A top U.S rider / Champion and one of the best of all time moving to the MXGP is new for everyone, certainly a lot more questions than answers right now.

Just hoping the result in this qualifying race does not become the norm, I want to see this title go down to the wire.

Yeah pretty much summed up my thoughts entirely. If he's still able to do this sort of thing when the championship starts in Europe, then AC and the rest will be in serious trouble. Personally I'm not sure he can, but we'll see... Still credit where credit's due for today - that was a freaking amazing ride! Just unbelievable. Pre-season I expected this at the first 3 GPs but then things became a little more murky after Qatar, now it's back to pre-season predictions again really.

Adam Wheeler said they were still tweaking RV's suspension on the line

Holeshot and gone,I know a LOT of these guys don't put it all on the line today if they don't have to but who's betting on anyonebut RV tomorrow?

oh I wasn't saying that's why he won just putting two separate thoughts together haha that said, that track prob does suit him better than most will but he still put 30 secs on the others in 20 minutes no denying that

He will blow everyone away on most tracks this year. On his Qatar gopro he was on the limit and some more. It was a bastard of a track and he kept on slamming it around.. HARD!
The GP boys should quickly find out how the AMA boys felt racing against this RV dude.

yeah but that was last week, doesn't count cause RV didn't go good, you know that haha.. If I could be bothered I'd go into the quali thread from last week and screen grab all the 'doesn't matter its just practice' or 'how many points does the quali race give you' posts and insert them in the appropriate threads.. but I'm trying to take the high road

I think the track suits rv and other American riders loads of jumps where as other euro tracks are very different from that I.e valkeswaard and lommel

Jamie, you take the left paddle, I'll take the right and we'll cruise this boat across the pond, because we are obviously in the same boat together about that comment. I would say I'll grab my popcorn and watch the crap unfold, but frankly, the stupidity that get's displayed sometimes, just pops my cork. I think I'll just go out and work on a car.

I'm racing myself tomorrow so won't see the race until about 8 pm uk time tomorrow night, hopefully all grenades have been thrown by then and I can just walk around observing the destruction left behind

Enjoy it man
